When I saw the yellow patterned paper for the first time I immediately got the idea to use it for a scalloped edge. I combined it with the grey dotted paper, I love that one. To give the card some color I used the fruity stamp, the ribbon, red cardstock, my sewing machine and some embellishments. On the inside I glued a strip of red patterned paper.

I'm so happy to introduce you to The Monthly Card Kit Club Design Team.

We have 4 talented ladies on the team and they all have their own unique style of cardmaking.

Starting October you will find lots of cards and projects created with the supplies of the kits on this blog to inspire you.

Let's meet those very talented ladies

My name is Loes Hiemstra, I'm 42 and mother of three wonderful kids. I've been crafting since I was a little girl.

I've done all sorts of things: knitting, painting and of course cardmaking. And I started to scrap a few months ago. Last year I discovered the world of blogging and now I'm addicted. I really enjoy to share my hobby with so many other people and to get inspired by all the beautiful creations found on the internet.

This is my first participation in a design team and I'm really looking forward to start designing for the Monthly Card Kit Club.

I discovered scrapbooking about 10 years ago after seeing my cousin put together an album for her son's first year and was hooked. Now I find I make more cards than anything else but hope to get back to scrapbooking...maybe once the kiddos are in school full days.

I love all the great goodies out there and thanks to the blogging world the chance to see so many different styles. I am so very excited to begin designing with the Monthly Card Kit Club, they're going to be great ladies!

Hi, i'm Heike and i live in Germany and I am 40 years old. My oldest daughter is ten years and my little one is three years old. I have been stamping for many years, started in 2002.

My favourite things to create are cards and boxes in all variations, and I love to make creations with my Scorpal. I'm so happy to work with this wonderful ladies in the team :-))..

Hi, I am Desíre Fourie and reside in Johannesburg, South Africa. I have been a loving wife for 24+ years to my soulmate, Conroy. I am a keen photographer {do freelance shoots on a regular basis}, avid gardener, energetic hiker {right now I would love to be outdoors blending with nature}, scrapaholic {have been teaching scrapbooking for more than 8 years}, novice jewellery designer, love mosaicing and of course a fanatic card designer. Can't wait to start designing with my fellow design team members here at the Monthly Card Kit Club and trust that we will be an inspiration to our followers.

Ladies I'm really looking forward in seeing your cards and projects!!

Have fun with your DT-kits

Thanks for stopping by,

xoxo Karin
